SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 3 > BOOK 34: SALES AND TRADE<br />

We were with the Prophet when a tall pagan with long matted unkempt hair came driving his<br />

sheep. The Prophet asked him, "Are those sheep for sale or for gifts?" The pagan replied, "They are for<br />

sale." The Prophet bought one sheep from him.<br />

Volume 3, Book 34, Number 420:<br />

Narrated Abu Huraira:<br />

The Prophet said, "The Prophet Abraham emigrated with Sarah and entered a village where there<br />

was a king or a tyrant. (The king) was told that Abraham had entered (the village) accompanied by a<br />

woman who was one of the most charming women. So, the king sent for Abraham and asked, 'O Ab-<br />

raham! Who is this lady accompanying you?' Abraham replied, 'She is my sister (i.e. in religion).'<br />

Then Abraham returned to her and said, 'Do not contradict my statement, for I have informed them<br />

that you are my sister. By Allah, there are no true believers on this land except you and 1.' Then Ab-<br />

raham sent her to the king. When the king got to her, she got up and performed ablution, prayed<br />

and said, 'O Allah! If I have believed in You and Your Apostle, and have saved my private parts from<br />

everybody except my husband, then please do not let this pagan overpower me.' On that the king fell<br />

in a mood of agitation and started moving his legs. Seeing the condition of the king, Sarah said, 'O<br />

Allah! If he should die, the people will say that I have killed him.' The king regained his power, and<br />

proceeded towards her but she got up again and performed ablution, prayed and said, 'O Allah! If I<br />

have believed in You and Your Apostle and have kept my private parts safe from all except my hus-<br />

band, then please do not let this pagan overpower me.' The king again fell in a mood of agitation and<br />

started moving his legs. On seeing that state of the king, Sarah said, 'O Allah! If he should die, the<br />

people will say that I have killed him.' The king got either two or three attacks, and after recovering<br />

from the last attack he said, 'By Allah! You have sent a satan to me. Take her to Abraham and give<br />

her Ajar.' So she came back to Abraham and said, 'Allah humiliated the pagan and gave us a slavegirl<br />

for service."<br />

Volume 3, Book 34, Number 421:<br />

Narrated 'Aisha:<br />

Sad bin Abi Waqqas and 'Abu bin Zam'a quarreled over a boy. Sad said, "O Allah's Apostle! This<br />

boy is the son of my brother ('Utba bin Abi Waqqas) who took a promise from me that I would take<br />

him as he was his (illegal) son. Look at him and see whom he resembles." 'Abu bin Zam'a said, "O Al-<br />

lah's Apostle! This is my brother and was born on my father's bed from his slave-girl." Allah's Apostle<br />

cast a look at the boy and found definite resemblance to 'Utba and then said, "The boy is for you, O<br />

'Abu bin Zam'a. The child goes to the owner of the bed and the adulterer gets nothing but the stones<br />

(despair, i.e. to be stoned to death). Then the Prophet said, "O Sauda bint Zama! Screen yourself from<br />

this boy." So, Sauda never saw him again.<br />
